Abstract
Porphyrin tweezers have been successfully used as hosts for the absolute stereochemical determination of a variety of chiral compounds. A set of new porphyrin tweezers with substituted aryl groups on the meso position of the porphyrin rings have been synthesized. The modified tweezers are used as hosts for the stereochemical determination of chiral diamines and carrier-derivatized alpha-chiral carboxylic acids in order to monitor the influence of the various substitutions of the aryl group on the amplitude and sign of the ECCD couplet. t-Butyl substitution at the meta positions of the porphyrin's meso phenyl substituents leads to enhanced ECCD amplitudes.
